Coilpacitor

[morpher44]

I would like to share some youtube videos I've made
which were inspired by the Hendershot Fueless Generator.
See:
YouTube - Coilpacitor
YouTube - hendershot coil replication - part 1
and
YouTube - hendershot coil replication - part 2

I would love to hear from folks who have studied and tried
to replicate Hendershot's fueless generator.
I think there is something to the idea of a coilpacitor.

MORPHER,

check my "Tesla Attempt" thread, ive experienced a similar thing to your coilpacitor using the HV --> bi-filar, the coil retains a charge even when completely disconnected from everything, capable of lighting a neon to full( if not higher ) brightness, also can light a neon continuously at a dim orange glow for about 10-15 seconds. only 1 side of the coil however seems to hold the charge, and that is the side that is being fed from the HV to a diode that is in opposition.

crazy meter

I see some of the odd behavior I was seeing when trying to measure VAC values on the coil can be attributed to my meter. Perhaps I've ruined it by going over the limit of 700VAC. My other meter is showing more reasonable values.

will do

rave154 -- I'll take a look @ tesla attempt. Thanks.

Morpher,

there seems to be "something IN the spark" be it a spark from a spark gap, or when you touch the wires of a component to "make" a circuit, when its done mechanically, out in the air so to speak there seems to be some odd effects that you dont get when you do the same thing solid-state...which is why im in contact with inquorate on my tesla thread & his mechanical switch thread to investigate this thing.. things are hotting up :-)

the spark

So Hubbard's coil and spark plug invention seemed to be all about AIDING the ionization of air so that its breakdown voltage is possibly FAR lower.
The reason sparks are good with coils is that the coil will have to respond to every little glitchy thing happening with a back EMF. So if you get a partical from space zipping by and hitting your copper wire, pinging the coil, the coil responds by ringing for a time.
If you can create a VORTEX to suck down particles from space into your collector, and then send that along to your coil, you can make your coil sing and dance all day. It should be possible to get the vortex going with some initial start up energy, but then to keep the vortex going with energy it receives.
A cylinder is a good shape. A cone might be a better one.
A cone attached to a sphere might be even better in that the sphere could
be your capacitor, with charges building inside it, but your cone being the vortex focus.
Copper, on the other hand, is tetrahedral. Richard Hoagland would love that.
So perhaps a tetrahedron, open at one end, could be the receiver side of the vortex, with 3 triangular copper plates as your collector.
Its interesting that Tesla/Electricians settled on 3 phases.
Each of the 3 plates in the tetrahedron could be tuned, LC tank circuit-wise,
to produce 3 waveforms, perhaps each at a different harmonic
relationship -- ala the golden section rules.

When two plates have a potential difference large enough, you can get a spark between the two.
When three places, arranged in a 3-sided prism shape each have a different
potential, you should see sparks between them all, producing a spark triangle. Shape this as a tetrahedron, and like a Jacobs Ladder, the heat should make the 3-sided spark rise OUT of the tetrahedron shape, if pointed up.

Can the process be reversed? I.e. to have a tetrahedron collector, with 3 different resonant frequencies, each a golden ratio from each other, producing 3 interrelated waveforms.

I have no idea what this all means. LOL

morpher....lol @ the delightful confusion.....great aint it !

Hendershot Rediscovery?

Last night I had an insight after reading carefully Hendershot's description of what he was doing with compasses.
Take a look:

YouTube - Hendershot's Compass Discovery Replication

This is possibly the effect Hendershot was using to create inductive
magnetic SPIN in his coils.

May I ask someone to please replicate this simple experiment and post their video here?
All you need are two compasses, a horseshoe magnet, a metal plate, an electro magnet and a battery.
Please post your video response and attach to the above one.

spinning a compass using a 555 timer

Two new videos created today for your viewing pleasure.

YouTube - Hendershot's Compass Discovery (more carefully done)
YouTube - Driving Hendershot Compass Spin using 555 timer

Its getting interesting now.
It seems possible to create a ZERO-INERTIA generator at this
point. WOW!

[Jbignes5]

hmm...

You might want to check the one magnet no bearing bedini thread. It seems you are duplicating the effect of a vortex link up with the compass from the coil just like they are doing but on a much slower scale. Think of the compass as a magnet like they started with and you are doing the same thing there. As for what hendershot was doing it might be the same thing they have discovered except with no spinning magnets.
The one magnet system can be utilized with a lot of satalites of smaller magnets and seem to link up with the satalites from any orientation once set in motion.

Hendershot & Hubbard, both diameters = 5.75 in

There was a story that Hubbard was saying the Hendershot is using the same principal and Hubbard claims he found it first.
One common thing I'm noticing is that their outer diameter for their
coils is 5.75 in, or thereabouts.
Interesting!!
There is something called Snoek's limit. New to me.
You have to know and understand the resonant frequency of the
material you are working with to know its magnetic resonance.
Hubbard appears to have assumed 2.8Ghz yet his coil is 5.75in.
The wavelength for 2.8Ghz is more like 4.218 in.
5.75in is more like 2.0Ghz.
Also, we have speed-of-light in copper (96% of c), which
would make the diameter a bit bigger (for the copper coil part).
So now I'm starting to think that this coil diameter is very
important. OOps!. My coil is 3.25in. Drat!!

Dual Coilpacitor Experiment

Here is a new video done last night showing
that an AC potential can easily be created between two
copper cylinders if they have a coil around them.

YouTube - Dual Coilpacitor Experiment

The coil is a modest 16 or 17 turns or so.

The cylinders are NOT connected to the coil.
The voltages appear due to a charge build-up, ala
capacitor and also due to inductive effects.

[Dave45]

maybe this could be used in a magnet motor application.

morpher i like your Stuff, very interesting Work. Nice.
Ever tried to make a Vakuum into the Tube ?

Tesla Light Bulb Experiments

I remember Tesla spent hours and hours working with bulbs and
it might be a good way to study the coilpacitor notion.

YouTube - Tesla Light Bulb Experiment Replication

I'm seeing two sorts of streamers. One that is orange-yellow, brush-like, arcing from coil to filimant in the bulb. The other is plasma-purple, taking different paths and is NOT brush-like but is rather fuzzy to the eye like ultra-violet light.

Are the two colors because of EMR and PMR? I wonder.
